Talking there lies a sleeping blue baby......

and in it lies 14 points of childs playtime! a set of monkey bars, just like Roman's beast! (sorry i couldn't resist)
it came a hair later than i had hoped but the quality of work and craftsmanship is excellent! as usual it looks great!
thanks for coming out there with me Roman, and for the help!

Roman,

19.5 #'s

You're getting pics for us, right taner?

and btw, one of these days I'd like to get any vids you may have of my car, seems I remember hearing you had some.

Taner, did you go with a whole new cage or just add to the existing one?

Andre didn't want to just add on, due to the 8 pt being a larger diameter bar. so yes it is all brand new.


birdie,

come on now, i know why it was doing that, it had nothing to do with roll bar, doh!

Legal to 8.5? Someone has big plans for 04!

Looking good. Did you have to cut up the dash any?

Roman,

Glad to help.

19.5, that should help that car along a little. We know that you need all of the help that you can get.

Now if we could measure the power increase as easily.

This IS going to be a good year.

harold,

lol! 8.50's in my dreams, right along with 8.99, he he! i will probably have to clearance the cluter bezel for dr. side A pillar bar. passenger side should clear nicely! of course i will have to fit the front cowl piece, i don't mind hacking that to bits

Q,

actually the welds are quite good, you'll see them sometime later this year, pic is $hit!

Roman,

seeing how far the must-nags are behind me will have to be our measurement method, hell by the time i hit 3rd gear now i shouldn't even be able to see their headlights, lmao!!!

Taner,
What was the floor movement from then? Maybe I'm just young and ignorant, but I just assumed it was from chassis flex. Guess not.

Birdie,

it was the threaded rod not screwed in on the torque arm, hence the breakage i experienced in the semi's at the nats. live'n'learn
